many things segfaulting suddenly


this seems to have started out of the blue...but after using the latest nvidia kernel driver for my go force, and removing libgl.so.1 which was causing problem with the drive.
reinstalling mesa-gl which provides it didnt work

so far heres what segfaults

mplayer
gmplayer
oowriter
oowriter2
wine(just hangs)
nvidia-settings

this is the last of a strace of oowriter:
